About our vineyards

Trellised vineyards in the Cape’s prime growing areas are cooled by False Bay sea breezes during the summer, helping to slow down ripening and concentrate fruit flavours. Grapes are hand-picked and delivered to the cellar, where they are handled very gently to preserve inherent fruit flavours.

Chemical Analysis

Trellised vineyards in the Cape’s prime growing areas are cooled by False Bay sea breezes during the summer, helping to slow down ripening and concentrate fruit flavours. Grapes are hand-picked and delivered to the cellar, where they are handled very gently to preserve inherent fruit flavours.

The grapes were harvested at 24˚ Balling and fermented in stainless steel tanks. It was pressed once the tank had fermented dry and then gently oaked and matured for 10 months before it was bottled.

Colour:
Dark red.
Aroma:
White pepper, cigar box and plum notes enhanced by gentle traces of wood spice.
Palate:
A bounty of plums and berries melds with wood spice flavours in this generous-bodied wine. Tannins are very well integrated.
